How it's used
While 售票處 is the standard term found on signs and maps, people often refer to the location more casually as 賣飛嘅地方. Using 售票處 sounds slightly more formal or institutional, similar to how one might use 'box office' in English for a theatre or cinema. It is almost exclusively used for public venues like cinemas, train stations, or concert halls.

Common mistake
Learners often mistakenly use 售票處 for buying things other than tickets, but it is strictly limited to ticket sales. For general shops or counters, use 櫃位 or 舖頭 instead.
